An update at Hervey Bay before we move on.

Howdy all!

Just a quick update before we move on from Hervey Bay tomorrow. We have had yet another great day in the sun here. Managed some more washing to keep us going, a bike ride along the esplanade and Pheobe and Maurice a swim in the pool. It's really too cold the water but they seem to cope okay until their lips go blue and start chattering! It's really a great place to visit Hervey Bay, esp. when the whales are in. That's between 1st August through to the 31st of October every year. There is plenty of other things to do of course and it's a huge town with everything you could possibly want or need.
 Speaking of wanting or needing, yesterday when I was up dating you all with the Whale pic's, Trent and Pheobe took the car off to get a wheel alignment after or trip to Fraser Island. When they arrived back 2 hours later, the car had 4 new tyres! They also ordered another for the spare which was collected today and on the back of the car now. Just an expense we didn't think we'd have but apparently the man who did the tyres showed Trent everything and he was so surprised that we even made it through Fraser, let alone here to Hervey Bay, and particularly with the caravan on! So, I guess a good expense after all. The car is much smoother I must admit and no steering wheel shaking anymore!!!!

So, getting back to today, here are some pic's of what we got up to:

The kids getting ready to go on the ride!

Maurice and Felicity on the front as we were riding along!

Krista, Pheobe and Trent in the back! Trent and Krista were the ones that had to do all the hard work!

The Guye Gang on our ride along the esplanade in Hervey Bay.

Pheobe in the pool testing out her new snorkeling gear!

Maurice just cruising around in the pool too.

We had our mail delivered today! Thanks GD and Nannie Di for all your help with that. It was good to go through it all. Pheobe received her letter of acceptance into Clairvaux Catholic Primary School for next year, so we are very happy with that news. Only one Bill to pay, so we got through it pretty good.
We also spoke to Nannie Rose today and she told us that Mac and Mollie are having a good time on the farm while we are away, so that made us all happy too. We must also say thanks to Poppy for looking after them when Nannie and Papa were away. We spoke to Nannie Jac and Poppy yesterday and they both sounded well, just cold!!! We hope the weather improves for you all, but any time you want to visit us, there is room and we'd love to see any of you if you can make it!
Don't forget to join this site, we want as many followers signed up as we can. Once you sign up and join and follow us you can write comments back to us which we'd love to read also.

Well, that's all the news that we have for now. The kids are all in bed after a busy day. Pheobe was so hungry and exhausted tonight, even eating what Trent left of his dinner! I think the swimming has made her this way tonight. I've also told them that if they slept longer in the mornings, instead of getting up anywhere from 6am onwards, then they would have a lot more energy as well! I can only try I guess!!!!
Take care everyone and I will post another blog when I get a chance. We will most likely head to Bunderberg tomorrow - perhaps a place of interest for Uncle Sniffer!!!! If he's watching the blog at all.
Lots of Love to everyone,
The Guye Gang! xoxoxoxoxo
